Hi guys,
great to find you all out there indulging the same fantasies.
OK, here's my problem. I'm a serious handbag addict and have collected all my life. Sadly my house and all my belongings got whiped out three years ago by a huge bushfire, the biggest in Australia's history. So I did all the sensible things and built a new house and got together all the gear you need to rebuild your life but where to start with the handbag collection. I had heaps, beautiful, beautiful bags that were old friends. My taste is a bit quirky but I'm seriously into good quality leather and not big on signatures, apart from the odd LV. I saw that leather spy posted earlier and nearly cried but I can't afford to start there.
Where do I start?
Gus
